Oga mi. The budget, is that for carcass alone; foundation to roofing? Thanks.

Oga mi, also add information on the land size required.

what if we prefer 3-bedrooms instead of the 2 bedroom??

I am so glad I dont see any cantilever or shoot-out in this house. Very nice simple design to maximize the land use.
